Change UserData of Post and Comment

E.g. change score to 4711 and change flagged status

{
   "command":"setPostUserData",
   "arguments":{
      "hash":"QmS2LEajk9jBm9YRnKMz3ukchmcWymF89d4MFpezYBBCMm",
      "UserData":{
         "Score":4711,
         "Flagged":true
      }
   }
}

{"status": "success"}

Note: Works similarly for Comments, just use setCommentUserData as command
